Best Answer

The last large eruptions at Mt. Hood took place around 170 to 220 years ago. The latest minor eruption occurred in August 1907.

There have been eruptions in the same area (Mt. St. Helen) and some activity (earthquakes) at Mt. Hood itself.

I think extinct is a word no longer used with volcanoes they are either active or dormant.
